[Bug 227062] Re: Savedefault on Windows entry causes Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory

[dino99]

This is no more a supported version; and grub legacy upstream is also
stopped, only receiving possible random fixes locally. Its time to use
grub2 instead

Title:
  Savedefault on Windows entry causes Error 28: Selected item cannot fit
  into memory

Status in grub package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub

  Sometime between Hardy beta and Hardy, grub stopped booting my Windows
  Vista partition.

  Now, when I try to boot the Vista entry from grub, it fails with the
  following message:

  "
   Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory

  Press any key to continue...
  "

  My menu.lst was auto-generated by the Hardy beta installer, and I
  haven't touched it since. I occasionally boot the Vista partition,
  which worked fine up until a few days ago. Alas, I'm not really able
  to tell which grub version that caused this. I'll try to re-install
  some older versions and report back the results.

  
  I'm attaching my menu.lst. Please let me know if something else is needed.

  System info:

  Release:        8.04
  grub: 0.97-29ubuntu21
